BREAKING NEWS FROM THE FAR NORTH - MY DX SUMMIT GOES LIVE

DX Summit once changed the DX hunt. Today hardly anyone is using the
traditional Search & Pounce approach. Everyone is connected to a DX
cluster locally or over the Internet. Easy to use and operated by
Radio Arcala (OH8X), DX Summit maintains its position as one of
Amateur Radio's largest web portals but it will now be refreshed - big
time!

DX Summit is modernized for a second time around, and MY DX SUMMIT
will now go online today for limited dedicated pre-user testing. We
will welcome some 200 pre-users who are prepared to try it out and
provide immediate feedback to the development team. The aim of this
exercise is to serve as the final debug phase and to enhance user
experience to maximum satisfaction before tens of thousands suddenly
fire their browsers to help them in their future DX hunt.

We ask you if would you like to be one of the few to have this
experience today? If you say "yes", please kindly be prepared not only
to test but also to provide a timely response. Send a note to
radioarcala at gmail.com and we will give you guidance to get started.

What to expect? Adding to the traditional spot functions you can
create own cluster view to monitor a selected callsign or multiple
callsigns real-time for band and mode specific spots. Or you can
exclude everything from your DX Summit view you're not interested in.

Also you can open several of those windows and you can have past and
current spots showing together. Basically you have full flexibility to
customize your DX Summit easily to show exactly what you're interested
in.

Additionally, an advanced propagation tool powered by VOACAP is laid
out in such a way that it tracks your location as a starting point,
and when clicking a spot it shows your propagation to that location as
of that moment but also for an entire period of 24 hours on all bands.
You can instantly understand whether your best chances for a QSO are
gone or just coming up. This will also be a great educational tool for
those wishing to gain insight into the total propagation picture,
including the existing radio propagation.

Additionally, a DX News section is integrated for your viewing
pleasure while spending your time at MY DX SUMMIT.

Just send us a note and you will be part of a new phase in the DX Hunt!
